3,255,066 Steps

It has been a little over a year since my wife and I got DS Walking for the Nintendo DS. I have logged in 3,255,066 steps in a year. That is equivalent to 1628 miles of walking, jogging, or running that I have done. That is a little less than the distance to drive from Seattle, Washington to Omaha, Nebraska. My wife and I did most of our walking while we lived in Japan from January until March 2010. While in Japan I walked 32,780 steps (16 miles) one day going to and hiking around Mt. Nokogiri. The most active walking I have had was 55 minutes straight. My wife whomped me on this with 60 minutes(1 hour)straight.

It is pretty neat that we are still actively using the DS Walking game (if you want to call it that). We have had a lot of months wherewe stamped everyday which means we are checking our steps at least every other day. I would recommend this software for the Nintendo DS justfor the information it provides.The software will show your actual steps throughout the day and the marker turns red if you are moving for 10 minutes straight. You can also walk around the world and learn interesting facts along the way. We got to the 100% with that function, but you can still keep going andlearning new things.

I better stop writing this, so I can figure out what game to play next.
